Animal Sanctuary Needs £200,000 To Avoid Closure

MANCHESTER, ENGLAND - JULY 27: Milly, a 13-week-old kitten looks through the glass of her pen as she waits to be re-homed at The Society for Abandoned Animals Sanctuary in Sale, Manchester, which is facing an urgent cash crisis and possible closure on July 27, 2010 in Manchester, England. The Society for Abandoned Animals exists entirely on public support and unless it can raise GBP 50,000 in the next couple of months it will have to close down. The registered charity started in 1967 and in the last five years alone the charity has rescued and found homes for more than 1,000 cats, 290 rabbits and 262 dogs. The rescue centre is one of the many who are suffering a downfall in donations due to the economic recession. (Photo by Christopher Furlong/Getty Images)

L.A. Zoo Debuts Pair Of Snow Leopard Cubs

LOS ANGELES, CA - SEPTEMBER 10: A pair of rare snow leopard cubs go on display at the Los Angeles Zoo and Botanical Gardens on September 9, 2009 in Los Angeles, California. The cubs, which have not yet been named, were born at the zoo on May 26 to a cat named Asia. Native to remote high mountains in Asia, only about 5,000 to 7,000 snow leopards are believed to remain in the wild. The cats can tolerate temperature extremes ranging from 40 degrees below zero Farenheit to as high as 104 degrees. They can leap 45 feet and kill prey that is two- to three-times their size. Snow leopards are at the top of the food chain and considered an indicator species. Ecosystems that support a high number of snow leopards are believed to be healthy.
